On January 31, 2011, RMH distributed to a subsidiary of Cablevision all of its rights, title and interest in and to the promissory note. This distribution amounting to $17,113, including principal and accrued and unpaid interest, is reflected as a capital distribution in the consolidated statement of stockholders' (deficiency) equity for the year ended December 31, 2011.

In connection with the Distribution, AMC Networks entered into an Employee Matters Agreement with Cablevision which allocated assets, liabilities and responsibilities with respect to certain employee compensation and benefit plans and programs and certain other related matters. As a result of such agreement, AMC Networks recorded a net receivable from Cablevision of $1,166, an increase in accrued employee related costs of $7,479 and a capital distribution of $6,313 which decreased additional paid in capital in the Company's statement of stockholders' (deficiency) equity for the transfer to the Company from Cablevision of the obligations related to the Company's employees' participant accounts in the Cablevision Excess Savings Plan $(3,616) and the Cablevision Excess Cash Balance Pension Plan $(3,863) and for the Company's obligation to Cablevision for the $5,904 unfunded liability associated with Company employee participants in Cablevision's Cash Balance Pension Plan. In addition, the Company reduced its long-term incentive plan and SAR liabilities and increased due to related party by $6,742 for its obligation to pay Cablevision for its allocated share of the related expense for Cablevision corporate employees through June 30, 2011. As of December 31, 2011, these related party balances were settled.
